Heaving line knot
This heaving line knot, based on the hangman’s
knot, will make an adequate substitute for a
monkey's fist. You can add weight to it by wrapping
a piece of lead around the initial bights.
1 Form a pair of bights in the standing part. Pass the working end
through the initial bight and over the standing part.
